Should a 16yr old be driving a B5 S4 with 100k miles?

I have nothing against the OP but this thread reminded me of this:

Nice cluster of tool bags you've found there... The kid sitting in the S4 has obviously smoked himself retarded. It's so funny listening to him at about 2:12 trying to explain... Something.

The video's owner posted it here a while back.

I love how the guy that was holding the camera kept saying "that's gay" but at the end he said "eat my ****".

If you can find a well maintained, single owner S4 with relatively low miles for being an 8-10 year old car, and can respect the car, I say go for the S4. Be upfront with your parents that the maintenance can be expensive and be patient about finding the right one. One of the guys I work with bought his S4 brand new in 2002, he has babied it, and it only has 60k miles on it. He says he's never had anything go wrong with it. Find one like his and you're good to go. If I were in your position, another car I would consider is an e46 M3.

On another note, my first car was a 1988 Toyota Celica. Split the cost with my parents. I had that till I bought my A4 after graduating college four years ago. I just finished paying the car off a couple months ago, and it is a great feeling. I'm now saving up for my next car which will either be an S4 or an M3.

Thanks man great advice that's sort of how I want to approach this, not as some spoiled 16 yr old brat.

And yeah I saw the original post for that video, I remember he commented and was like 'ya my mom got me the car and i totaled it so I was just messing around until I got the new parts paid for' something like that. That's the type of 16 yr old I really dont wanna be haha.

thanks everyone

You definitely appreciate a car tons more if you buy it yourself, my first car was a Cadillac coupe deville 89 with 200k miles on it and it was handed down .

I treated it fairly well but really didn't care if something happened to it.


Ever since i bought my A4 i never thought i would love piece of machinery this much. And you can't help but appreciate seeing another b5 pass you on a road or any audi in general.

I would go apeshit if someone hurt my car...
So no matter what you get, make sure you treat the car well cause i know alot of guys on here would if they were handed a free a4.
